What's A Delaware (Poetry) This a Petrarchan written to emulate a children's poem. I have found that using the form, with the context of children's lit creates a Seussian sound that works well. [108 words]
A Versifier Writes A Verse To Honor The Worsifier
Daniel L Mishkin

God Bless you, Ogden Nash!
Although some of you poems could be rather rash.
Whenever life got me down I could always
     know as much.
When I read one of your poems life didn't
     blow as much.
Yet although I'm glad your works Norton didn't
     seem fit to edit,
I don't think our poetry teachers ever gave you
     the credit.
Not that I didn't like reading about Prufrock
     or Leda.
But we had to analyze them so much it felt like analyzing
     bio-physio-geological data!
But your poems were simply, hilariously super
Whenever I read them I would laugh myself
     into a stupor!
People can say what they want about you, but I know
     that this much is true,
When it comes to cracking us up, Yeats, Pound, and Eliot
     ain't got nothing on you!
